PEARLS OF THOUGHT
Affectation is a deformity.

Auectation IL deIormltY.
Consider pleasures as they depart not
as they come.
Good manners and good morals arc
sworn friends and firm allies.
Pleasure is the flower that fades; re-
membrance is the lasting perfume.
Unless the habit leads to happiness,
the best habit is to contract none.
II a man cannot readily recognize
merit, it is very certain that he has none
himself.
1t may be far less respectable to be
able to wear fine clothes than to be able
to make them.
The superior man wishes to DO slow in
his words and earnest in his conduct.
The two powers which constitute n
wise man are those of bearing and for
bearing.
Application is the price to be paid for
mental acquisition. To have the harvest
we must sow the seed.
Each departed friend is magnet that
attracts us to the next world.
Ono might as we'll be out of tho world
as be beloved by nobody in it.
Consume little time In regret; The
best repentance is reformation, What
tears of contrition are powerless TO effect
an altered life easily accomplishes.

mirror; and fixing my eyes on it, l per-

Farm and Garden Notes.

A good deal of the peculiar mutton
taste is taken out of it when mutton is
cured.
To properly keep straw and hay in
stacks, the stacks must be so constructed
as to shed water.
A writer in Gardening Illustrated says
he has found sulphide of potassium an
efficient remedy for mildew on the straw
berry.
Sulphur and old tobacco leaves burned
in the poultry house, the house being
closed perfectly tight, will clean out the
red lice.
One of the best supplementary feeds
with corn fodder is wheat bran. Usually
it can be bought cheaply at this season,
and is even better in the winter as sup
Elementary feed for cows.
If potatoes be kept in cellars which
have damp bottoms they should be
slowed in shallow bins, raised slightly
above the cellar bottoms. They keep
best in cool, well-drained, underground
cellars.
The more rapidly air is brought into
cantact with cider the faster the latter
turns into vinegar. Draw out little
cider daily and return it to the barrel, if
for vinegar.
Even two or three feeds of cooked tur-
nips or potatoes each week is better than
to omit such food altogether. 1t is va
riety that promotes health and krcps the
stock in condition.

Photography at Sea.

Photography at sea is becoming quito
frequent, and is a means of recording
many interesting scientific and other
facts. Much light may thus be thrown
upon the science of wave form and in
Vulnerable other marine subjects. Pho
Biography is also capable of serving tho
marine architect to great advantage. An
instantaneous picture of vessel when
moving through the water is valuable
subject for study by the designer of hulls
and engine builders. To be of this SER
vice the speed of the vessel must be
known. This data may be obtained
from the picture itself by tho length of
the vessel being known, and by sre-
cial rig for the photographer. A shut
ter is required which will give two in
Simultaneous (so-calledl exposures, the
time between exposures being known.
For instance, vessel two hundred feet
long is to be photographed at speed,
sd while going slow, etc. One second
clapscs between the two exposures, and
two images of the vessel appear upon
the picture. By applying scale to the
photograph we find that the vessel
moved onc-twentieth of her length in
one second, or just ten feet; by little
calculation this is found to equal about
6. SO miles per hour. The speed thus
being known, the "throw of water" or
position of waves on the vessel may be
studied at leisure by the designer.
Two images of the vessel upon tho same
plate interferes somewhat with the
study of waves, but if second camera
be employed distinct picture may be
taken at the same time the dual view
is secured, and the single view used for
purpose Of study, the speed being de-
termined as before from the dual view.
